Patio Screen and Clear Vinyl

Let’s compare and contrast patio screen and clear vinyl. Patio screens and shades offer two levels of functionality. The first is simply protection from insects. These types of patio mesh screens typically have a mesh size that prevents insects from making their way indoors while also allowing for a nice breeze. The second level of functionality is shade. These patio shades are typically made of a colored fabric to offer both solar and insect protection. However, neither patio mesh nor shades are capable of protecting your indoor/outdoor space from rain, snow, sleet, dirt or fine debris.

Clear vinyl offers a barrier of protection unmatched by mesh or shades. Unlike many clear vinyl curtains on the market, Stoett’s Panorama Clear Vinyl design also keeps the vinyl curtain inside the tracks when in the down position. This provides the ultimate in weather protection and product integrity under harsh conditions. You’ll also notice a remarkable difference in heat retention with clear vinyl compared to screens or strictly shades. So, no need to fret about your patio furniture, cushions, and patio items when weather comes in. Simply close the vinyl curtains and you’re all set.

Stoett’s Panorama Clear Vinyl

As shown in the video, clear vinyl is often used as a supplemental level of protection for screened or shaded porches. This is like turning your screened-in-porch into a true three-season room. Stoett’s Panorama Clear Vinyl product line is available with a spring-assist manual operation or motorized. The clear vinyl material is marine grade, amazingly clear, easy to maintain and allows for superior vision versus the commercial vinyl that has a blue or grey haziness. Our surrounding fabric is a high-performance awning fabric that provides UV resistance and protection from heat and weather for long-lasting use.

I couldn’t find anything else that would offer such a clear, open view. Every other product couldn't meet the span without creating a divider and hindering the view. I love them.
